Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

The rhythmbox manual (pressing F1 in Rhythmbox or help-> content) states that DAAP sharing is turned on by default: "When you will start Rhythmbox, it will look for all DAAP shares published on your local network (your home or your office, not the whole Internet) by other users and will display them in the Source list."
Since we dont turn on avahi-daemon by default (edgy) this doesnt work on startup of rhythmbox, and will make the user very confused. The help should state so and instruct the user to install avahi-daemon.
